Some cheerful news at last, although sadly not for me (I'm too old).
I was talking to some guy at the Cranfield Rally recently, generally discussing the latest depressing economic figures and the cost of flying. The conversation got around to flight training, in particular commercial flight traing. I thought the world was against flying, so you can imagine my surprise when he told me that Atlantic Airlines are looking to expand and will shortly be recruiting cadets to start training through their training division, Atlantic Flight Training.
I checked this out by speaking with one of their instructors on the phone (sorry, can't remember his name), who confirmed this information.
As I said at the top, I'm outside the age bracket but for all you younger wannabees out there, the chance of a free ATPL is on again. Give them a call.
It's amazing what you can find out just by chatting in a bar !!
